Is anyone harvesting?

[furrowtickler]

We did some canola today 11.5% mt. Some of the big guys with driers are doing wheat above 25%. Some peas done here in the few days, but overall very little going on. Showers started again here stopping things again.

Nothing happening around here been waiting all summer for the weather to change. Finished baling first cut hay on sept 4 and that was probably the the best as it had a 4 day window with no rain on it.

Nope, an hour on Monday while it was misting, two days last week, 6 hours the week before and two days the week before that. That makes a grand total of 4.5 days in the last 3.5 weeks.

Only thing combined here of the 10% seeded in the area is 60 acres of neighbors winter wheat out of a quarter. He got stuck 12 times with the combine, 7 with the grain cart. No peas done, nothing but that one third of a field of winter wheat. 5-10 bushel canola swathed by my home quarter, neighbor has a 20 bushel barley crop as well. Pathetic.

So no, other than the neigbor getting stuck nearly once every three acres on that winter wheat, nothing is ready, even if it were a dry weather pattern. Of course, with the pathetic amount seeded out here, it doesn't really matter anyway.

Wonder how the green Outlook-Kindersley durum and wheat will fare with -4 in the forecast?

Sounds like many of you are having a typical for us tough harvest. Good luck, be careful out there, and I must add, I am happy for those with some crop, and wish them the best.

Yellows or greens, how do they look ado?

Neighbours are harvesting, standing wheat in the rain. But they are big boys and need/must go rain or shine. They gots a dryer and have had a marketing course, sos they've probably sold everythin. Hope they don't get stuck er break somethin........ Suspect that they's thrown a bit outta the back, er grindin the wheat to flour. Dryer may turn out to bake the stuff. Love the smell of baking bread tho.

Yellows, I think they're still looking ok. I got kickied off the farm and told to make some money until the weather gets better, but there hasn't been any bitching about them beening crapy yet.
